I've had this sore wound on my back for over 3 years that just won't heal. My homeo doctor recommended minor surgery to remove it, but I'm wondering if there are other treatment options without going under the knife. My blood sugar is around 300 - does that affect the healing? If surgery is really the only way, which specialist should I see for this?

The morning-after pill's impact on fertility is a common concern. _The Morning-After Pill and Fertility_ 1. _No conclusive evidence_: Research suggests that the morning-after pill (emergency contraception) does not affect future fertility. 2. _Temporary effects_: The pill may delay ovulation, but this effect is temporary and reversible. 3. _Multiple uses_: Taking the morning-after pill multiple times, as you have, is not thought to impact fertility. _Fertility Risks: Separating Fact from Fiction_ 1. _No increased risk_: Studies show no increased risk of infertility or reduced fertility after using emergency contraception. 2. _Return to fertility_: Fertility typically returns to normal after taking the morning-after pill. _If You're Concerned_ 1. _Consult your doctor_: Discuss your concerns with your healthcare provider or a fertility specialist. 2. _Get regular check-ups_: Regular gynecological check-ups can help monitor your reproductive health. Remember, the morning-after pill is designed for emergency situations. If you're concerned about contraception, consider consulting your doctor about long-term birth control options.

What happens when diabetics eat sugar?
Hyperglycemia , the excess sugar passes from your blood into your urine, which triggers a filtering process that draws tremendous amounts of fluid from your body. Left untreated, this can lead to life-threatening dehydration and a diabetic coma.
